Submission incomplete:
The DOE shall determine whether there is a temporary deviation from the monitoring plan in the registered PDD (hereinafter referred to as the registered monitoring plan), the applied methodologies, the applied standardized baselines, or the other applied methodological regulatory documents and, if there is, determine whether the deviation complies with the relevant requirements in the “CDM project standard for project activities” (Paragraph 281 of VVS for PA v 03.0).
The DOE validated that 1) Parameter of vCH4,RG,m (volumetric fraction of component methane in the residual gas on a dry basis in minute m) has not been measured continuously as per the monitoring plan, but monitored by the portable gas analyzer at least 4 times a day instead with 90/10 confidence/precision level applied; 2) the higher adjusted values were used for the calculation of project emissions; and 3) this approach was in line with the applied methodology AMS-III.H, version 18.0 and conservative. The DOE is required to provide further information on how the monitoring of vCH4,RG,m during the monitoring period was in line with applied methodology and conservative considering that 1) the applied methodology requires to calculate the project emission as per the methodological tool “Project emissions from flaring” which requires the parameter to be measured continuously and 2) the registered monitoring plan states that “If there is no record of vCH4,RG,m, it shall be assumed that the flare efficiency is zero.”
